It's not uncommon for folks to go back for second helpings of this hearty main dish when I share it at church potluck suppers. The combination of ground beef, noodles, cheese and a zippy tomato sauce is a crowd-pleaser. Ingredients:
1 package (12 ounces) spaghetti |
1-1/2 pounds ground turkey or beef |
1 medium green pepper, chopped |
1 medium onion, chopped |
1 can (14-1/2 ounces) diced tomatoes, undrained |
1 can (8 ounces) tomato sauce |
1 tablespoon brown sugar |
1 teaspoon salt |
1 teaspoon chili powder |
1/2 teaspoon pepper |
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder |
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper |
3/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese |
Directions:
1. Cook spaghetti according to package directions. Meanwhile, in a large skillet, cook beef, green pepper and onion over medium heat until meat is no longer pink; drain. Stir in tomatoes, tomato sauce, brown sugar, salt, chili powder, pepper, garlic powder and cayenne. Drain spaghetti; add to the beef mixture.
2. Transfer to a greased 13-in. x 9-in. baking dish. Cover and bake at 350° for 30 minutes. Uncover; sprinkle with cheese. Bake 5 minutes longer or until cheese is melted. Yield: 12 servings.
